Ried Steinsetz Kamptal DAC Grüner Veltliner

Variety: Grüner Veltliner
Region: Kamptal
Vineyard: Ried Steinsetz
Soil Type: Alluvial Gravel with river stones
Fermentation & Élevage: Fermented and aged in large Austrian Manhartsberg Oak

A single vineyard in the village of Gobelsburg, very close to the winery. Rather than the typical loess based soils that GV is typically grown in, Steinsetz is alluvial gravel with smooth, rounded river stones that would be at home in Ch. Neuf. This is a cooler site and produces wines that have more snap and less concentration than the other GV sites Ried Renner, Ried Grub and Ried Lamm, which are all Erste Lagen. 100% natural ferment in large Manhartsberg (Austrian local oak from the Kamptal) oak cask, left to mature for ten months before bottling. Austria certified Sustainable.
